76 years old. 51 years of rock since the first Montrose album. Sammy can still deliver, and has surrounded himself with a bunch of players and singers to round it out.
Does anyone of any age love life more and have more fun and just plain flat out cool, humble and gracious than The Red Rocker Sammy Hagar? I doubt it! I've been a fan since 1980..Keep on rockin, Sammy!
Love this song !!!!!!!!!!! Best song ever written . Every version they ever did was different we all have our favorite mine is the very first song off live without a net the free concert in Dallas texas and the the guitar battle in Hamburg German
As crazy as it may sound, I never felt like Sammy was considered to be The Singer at any point in the rock and roll era but the reality is that he is absolutely a phenomenal singer for classic rock tunes. He has also been one of the greatest rock and roll advocates to ever walk the earth. He’s super positive and he is a good guy who is always on the go. He deserves a special award for his keeping the fun and the flame alive. Bravo Sammy Hagar🏆
Imagine being so good of a singing Rockstar that you have had Eddie Van halen, Joe satriani, in your band. Not to mention have played with Neil schon, and numerous other. THE GUYS HAD HALEN AND SATRIANI AS HIS LEAD AXES!!!!!
That keyboardist has a pretty sweet gig. I guess he's mostly for backing vocals? Because most of these songs have almost no keyboards to begin with, and in the clips I've seen he's absolutely nowhere in the mix. Just do the standard rock and roll gimmick and hire three hot chicks to sing backup. lol
How do you expect a 76 yr old with 52 yrs as professional touring and recording artist to sound? He’s old, your voice changes over time and even more so after using it on tours night after night.
@@knightfall9394 Everything you say is true. I would repeat: *Second concert of the tour *His own song *Didn't even sing the chorus *Seemed lost musically at the end of the song Maybe they needed more rehearsal.
It’s great having a vocalist like Mikey that can NAIL every vocal in the entire catalog if Sammy is struggling! Loved Eddie VH (rip) but he was a complete douche with Mikey!
Yeh, I can think of no one better than Satriani to play in the absence of Eddie; but Eddie is Eddie. Not only that, Eddie had an amazing stage presence that is hard to match. Credit to Joe for making this happen.
I love Sammy, Michael and Jason, but this whole BOAW's Tour is a complete disaster. First of all, for a Tribute to Eddie, why is Sammy singing so much of his own material? Not to mention, the always clinical and Soul-Less Joe Satriani doing "Satch Boogie"? Guitarist-wise, Sammy should have hired Reb Beach, Paul Gilbert or Alex Skolnick for example. Also, Sammy has this long video montage before they hit the stage NOT of Eddie/VH, but showcasing Sammy's career. Huh?? And not to state the obvious, it would have been great to have DLR sing his songs, and Sammy do his VH-era material. So basically, we have the Chickenfoot band, doing a tribute to Eddie. I don't know what the Production Crew was thinking when this was organized, but this whole thing is a complete let-down, and comes across very half-assed. I know I'm not the only one who thinks that based on comments I have seen online and on RUclips.
Lol you’re bitching about satriani being soulless and clinical and you name drop paul gilbert of all people. Pauls style and sound wouldnt have worked for this and pauls a die hard DLR era fan. Reb would totally revamp these songs to suit his style to the point it would piss of the already super pissy vh fans. Why would sammy ask alex when there’s nothing alex has done to give him the idea that he would be the guy. Testament has been working hard to get a new album going for a while now so alex walking away from that wasnt gonna happen. As far as joe playing satch boogie, was he supposed to play eruption? Yea that would’ve gone over well with the whiney vh fan base, satch boogie is a moment for joe to shine. Eddie himself in a 1990 issue of guitar world magazine said satch boogie was a “jazzed up hot for teacher” and joe “had a little vh in him” so why the fuck not play satch boogie.
People are buying tickets and having a good time. If you don't like Satch, stay home and write comments on youtube. DLR cannot sing these days. Any VH live music is better than NO VH live music.
"Soulless Satriani" ?? Where is the point in the show where he is not putting his heart and soul into it? Most players, not all are not even in the same soul era range or the beginning of a pimple on Satriani's behind. He like EVH is a Master World Class musician!! Peace
Enough with the irritating flashing and blinding stage lights! The 2000s are calling! They want their stupid blinding flashing lights back! How anybody would want to have those annoying lights flashing in their eyes is beyond me!
76 years old.
51 years of rock since the first Montrose album.

Joe is 68, can you imagine the mileage on those fingers, and still going strong.
@SteveGamlin Time sure does fly ,don't it bro??
@@theunknown4570 Sure does, I'm 56...and this music still makes ME feel like a kid!
Belive it was about 1978.best concert I have ever been to Montrose and Journey Winterland San Francisco!
@@billjones4986 I would have loved to see Montrose!!
Sammy's is awesome. This song, Rock Candy, Heavy Metal, 55, Right Now, the guy writes timeless songs.
It’s not a Van Halen song
Aaannnd your point is!?@piano-ccc1026
@@user-wf8ru6qf1h my point is a$$ face the song sounds fine with Joe s don’t need eddies sounding licks on Sammy’s solo works
I hope Sammy Hagar and that Van Halen 1981 Rock band is in Lexington Kentucky!
Does anyone of any age love life more and have more fun and just plain flat out cool, humble and gracious than The Red Rocker Sammy Hagar? I doubt it! I've been a fan since 1980..Keep on rockin, Sammy!
Dave Grohl and Sammy tied for first.
These guys are having way too much fun while putting on a hell of a performance!! 👍🏻🇺🇸.
Sammy needs to be inducted into the Rock Hall of Fame as a solo artist
1000% yes!!!
Joe is killing it!
He always does, guy is 68 yrs old and he still pulls off a lot of his trademark stuff effortlessly
I mean he IS one of the best guitar players to ever live sooo...
JOE IS AWESOME!
He blows! Butchered all the great hard rock fills and solos of this song.
You still got it Red Rocker Only one way to Rock 🎸👍
Michael is a great bass player, excellent background vocals and he seems like a super guy. I do not understand why the brothers undervalued him.
The Alex VH book hopefully explains, why. I can't understand it either.
@jimsim777 Because they are greedy aholes and all-around bad people. Just like Henely and Frey.
.mikie is one best bass players in rock an roll period,his back round vocals were back bone of Van halen
Because he didn’t write music. He flavored it yes but Eddie started to get pissed they split everything equally.
Mike is one of the best bass players to ever live and is a sincerely nice human being. The best guy!
Sammy has put the most Kick Ass Band together! All 5 are Rock’n’Roll Beast! Sammy is truly a Legend! Long Live “The Red Rocker”🤘🔥🤘
R.I.P. Eddie but Joe is another beast on the guitar, they are real masters
Love this song !!!!!!!!!!! Best song ever written . Every version they ever did was different we all have our favorite mine is the very first song off live without a net the free concert in Dallas texas and the the guitar battle in Hamburg German

Awesome
This is a One for the Ages.
....Rock n' Roll Performance Sammy going into a different world 🌎
I quit drinkink.
just killer thanku!!!
Joe playing a fender tone master pro straight to board
Great songs yes but they should play an all VH set.
To be fair VH did play this.
Sammy still kicking ass at 76 years old
Mike is killing it!
Go Red Rocker🤘
Superband
why would they have canceled?
TONIGHT BRIDGEPORT, CT The AMP will be rocknnnn THANKS for The Video Hope you had a n AWESOME NIGHT
Joe is doing well but I preferred Eddie on live without a net and his amazing licks . Joe held back here
He’s so Stinkin good it’s not even funny. Bravo Joe luv watch boogie !
At Grand pa age Sammy can still keep his vocals in a great range. 😅
Wouldn't it be cool if we could keep our 20's singing voices all the way to death? The boys still F'n jam though.
Tearing it up.
One of the greatest songs ever
Sammy's mom called, and she wants her pants back!!! 😂😂
And Joe's bald head....Idk about all that.
Is that Charlie Manson on Jason's drums ?
Pretty sure it's his dad.
So - what happened to Phil Collins?
Imagine being so good of a singing Rockstar that you have had Eddie Van halen, Joe satriani, in your band. Not to mention have played with Neil schon, and numerous other. THE GUYS HAD HALEN AND SATRIANI AS HIS LEAD AXES!!!!!
Good old Rock and Rolling get down with your bad self.
8lack and blue dallas come on
Juat simply incredible!
one of the greatest rock songs ever !!!!
J’entends pas bien la voix !!!
Peut-être, j’entends plus bien (53)pige 😅
🤘
Only Micheal Anthony vocals can make this song good
Eddie killed it with Sammy way back in the day on Farm Aid.
Sammy's a real rocker I Sean him in 83 he hasn't missed a beat
Sammy is still rocking...still wailing...while David Lee Roth does what exactly? Shtick. He got NUTHIN! Love Sammy
no one drums this song like Alex Van Halen. too bad
Too bad Sammy has lost his voice finally 😮
Jason needs a headset man you don't want to break your front tooth on a sm58 mic.....😮
why is sammy not singing?
Crappy sound...
Love Sammy, but this should be his retirement tour. He's lost all power to his voice. No shame, it's been a great run!
Where are you hearing that? He sounds good
thanks for saying that... I didn't want to harsh everyone's vibe 😆
Agreed. Voice is gone.

🤣
What is with Sammy? Can't sing his own song? The rest of the band is carrying the weight here.

Seemed lost musically? It is his own song, so what if he lolly gags a bit. He has earned the right.
@@philf4086 hey try it yourself instead of talking shit on RUclips, big difference between the guys that do it and the nobodys
Drummer?
1970borntorun
You don’t know what you’re talking about. If you think Joe is soulless.
I agree that it should be more about Eddie though.
It’s great having a vocalist like Mikey that can NAIL every vocal in the entire catalog if Sammy is struggling! Loved Eddie VH (rip) but he was a complete douche with Mikey!
Joes licks are great but luke warm compared to Ed's
Yeh, I can think of no one better than Satriani to play in the absence of Eddie; but Eddie is Eddie. Not only that, Eddie had an amazing stage presence that is hard to match. Credit to Joe for making this happen.
No one better? Phil X comes immediately to my mind
Not a VH tune though, ha ha.
Yea all the tapping licks, harmonic screams, and trem picked lines ed beat to death on this song sure didnt get old at all
@@twst1I trump that with Nuno.
Sammy stands back and lets the backup vocals sing the chorus … the MOST important part of the song. Weak sauce.
I did notice that...right off the bat!
It's called...New & Improved
Have you ever seen Dave live!? Smh

Because this is not a tribute to Evh it’s a celebration of Sammy career and his time with vh and bringing those songs back to play live again.
Dave sing?😂😂😂😂 he can’t even carry Sammies jock strap at this age!
I'm convinced being born any year during the 60s is the beginning of a true spiritual journey. 📻💽☯✝
Crank up the drums, cranked the bass, crank up my Les Paul in your face!
